Method Detail

add

public Type add(Type rightArgumentType)

Return a new type which represents the type that results from adding a token of this type and a token of the given argument type.

Specified by:

add in interface Type

Parameters:

rightArgumentType - The type to add to this type.

Returns:

A new type, or BaseType.GENERAL, if the operation does not make sense for the given types.

clone

public java.lang.Object clone()

Return this, that is, return the reference to this object.

Specified by:

clone in interface Type

Overrides:

clone in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

A DBConnectionType

convert

public Token convert(Token token)
              throws IllegalActionException

Convert the specified token to a token having the type represented by this object.

Specified by:

convert in interface Type

Parameters:

token - A token.

Returns:

A token.

Throws:

IllegalActionException - If lossless conversion cannot be done.

divide

public Type divide(Type rightArgumentType)

Return a new type which represents the type that results from dividing a token of this type and a token of the given argument type.

Specified by:

divide in interface Type

Parameters:

rightArgumentType - The type to add to this type.

Returns:

A new type, or BaseType.GENERAL, if the operation does not make sense for the given types.

getTokenClass

public java.lang.Class getTokenClass()

Return the class for tokens that this basetype represents. The DBConectionToken class.

Specified by:

getTokenClass in interface Type

Returns:

The class for tokens that this type represents.

isAbstract

public boolean isAbstract()

Return true if this type does not correspond to a single token class. This occurs if the type is not instantiable, or it represents either an abstract base class or an interface.

Specified by:

isAbstract in interface Type

Returns:

Always return false, this token is instantiable.

isCompatible

public boolean isCompatible(Type type)

Test if the argument type is compatible with this type. The method returns true if this type is UNKNOWN, since any type is a substitution instance of it. If this type is not UNKNOWN, this method returns true if the argument type is less than or equal to this type in the type lattice, and false otherwise.

Specified by:

isCompatible in interface Type

Parameters:

type - An instance of Type.

Returns:

True if the argument type is compatible with this type.

isConstant

public boolean isConstant()

Test if this Type is UNKNOWN.

Specified by:

isConstant in interface Type

Returns:

True if this Type is not UNKNOWN; false otherwise.

getTypeHash

public int getTypeHash()

Return this type's node index in the (constant) type lattice.

Specified by:

getTypeHash in interface Type

Returns:

this type's node index in the (constant) type lattice.

isInstantiable

public boolean isInstantiable()

Determine if this type corresponds to an instantiable token classes. A BaseType is instantiable if it does not correspond to an abstract token class, or an interface, or UNKNOWN.

Specified by:

isInstantiable in interface Type

Returns:

True if this type is instantiable.

isSubstitutionInstance

public boolean isSubstitutionInstance(Type type)

Return true if the argument is a substitution instance of this type.

Specified by:

isSubstitutionInstance in interface Type

Parameters:

type - A Type.

Returns:

True if this type is UNKNOWN; false otherwise.

modulo

public Type modulo(Type rightArgumentType)

Return a new type which represents the type that results from moduloing a token of this type and a token of the given argument type.

Specified by:

modulo in interface Type

Parameters:

rightArgumentType - The type to add to this type.

Returns:

A new type, or BaseType.GENERAL, if the operation does not make sense for the given types.

multiply

public Type multiply(Type rightArgumentType)

Return a new type which represents the type that results from multiplying a token of this type and a token of the given argument type.

Specified by:

multiply in interface Type

Parameters:

rightArgumentType - The type to add to this type.

Returns:

A new type, or BaseType.GENERAL, if the operation does not make sense for the given types.

one

public Type one()

Return the type of the multiplicative identity for elements of this type.

Specified by:

one in interface Type

Returns:

A new type, or BaseType.GENERAL, if the operation does not make sense for the given types.

subtract

public Type subtract(Type rightArgumentType)

Return a new type which represents the type that results from subtracting a token of this type and a token of the given argument type.

Specified by:

subtract in interface Type

Parameters:

rightArgumentType - The type to add to this type.

Returns:

BaseType.GENERAL because the operation does not make sense for the given types.

toString

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

A String.
